Do Sims get fat after pregnancy?

Mine seemed to but she was also busy taking care of the baby and going to work so there was no time for the gym.

My two sims absolutely gained weight after their pregnancies. My one sim didn't exercise at all during it and her belly was BIG by the end. My other sim right now has a smaller belly at the end of her trimester but she's an active sim and has been exercising throughout the whole thing for her second child. I kind of love the realism that this brings. I finally got my firs sim to lose her pregnancy weight by using the treadmill often. Thankfully with the multitasking she also watches the cooking channel which makes her gain fun at the same time and improves both skills.

My Sim just had a baby and she's still super slim after giving birth. I had her go jogging every single day while she was pregnant though. I have all of my Sims go jogging once per day, as part of their morning wake-up routine (wake up, use toilet, take a brisk shower, go jogging, then eat breakfast). I added jogging to their routine because one of my Sims had gotten really...chunky.

This is a photo of her the day she gave birth:

I definitely think it's a food/no exercise thing. I have a male Sims that had no time to work out when he started his job and he got quite round until I was able to work time in to get him on a treadmill. My female Sims on the other hand has stayed thin despite having a child, and worked out through the whole thing.

Mine got chubby after having three kids. I didn't notice it until right before the third kid because her elbows got dimples! So cute!

Now that she is done having babies, I'm going to have her slim down a little bit. The funny thing is her husband is a glutton and I've been having him eat all of the time and he simply is not gaining any weight! That is frustrating because I want him to have a little pot belly. He is only seven to eight days away from being an elder after all.

They do. I had an hour glass figure Sim- beautiful as ever. (Maybe I should pic her?) anywho- I made her my tester Sim. I named her Elsa and she was to have as many babies as she could and not work out (no jogging, exercising, anything) until she had a girl. Originally I did not have a rule about exercising, it wasn't until after the second son was born, that I noticed she was definitively bigger-so I wouldn't let her exercise, I wanted to see if it was my eyes playing tricks on me. It wasn't. But I had boys up until I played with her. The first baby was OK- it was a boy. The second baby was a boy too-After that baby was born-she was waay bigger. By the third pregnancy- she was a straight blob. No more curves- her butt was a double wide trailer. And after the babies were born, she still looked pregnant! I might try the experiment again with foods, to see if there is a "sway method" to it as well. The third pregnancy was twin girls. THANK the Sim gods, because she looked like she was about to explode out of her clothes. Now- also this is my 2nd Sim who had a baby. I had another Sim (my legacy starter) who gave birth to 3 sons before her and never gained a pound. Ate all the same food... BUT I had her jogging daily. I restricted Elsa from jogging until she had her daughters- as soon as she started (within 3 days) she was right back down to her original weight. Best way to go I think- get a bunch of women and one man- who loves women. impregnate all of them- have the social worker take the babies- There might be a sway method involved with salad and eggs (just throwing it out there) I am getting bored with the game now- so I am thinking about giving it a go. But I definitely noticed a change with the Sim bodies after pregnancy.

Mine lose weight but I think it's because I make them jog while they are pregnant lol.

Yes. My sim (that was me :3) got fat like a pig :(

What I have seen with doing the 100 baby challenge is that sims that breastfed gain wait and sims who don't do not gain weight. I could be wrong but this is what i have found during the 100 baby challenge. My first sim in the first generation breastfed very baby and since she had 23 babies she has grown very heavy, but with the second generation I have not breastfed at all and my sim has been the same even after 17 babies.

I have had one sim get much chubbier after back to back pregnancies. Generally not, though.
